‘From Anansi to John Henry’ stage production (PreK-5th grade)

“Presented by Bright Star Touring Theatre

This show is a celebration of African American folktales, oral traditions & literature. We are so thrilled to present trickster shorts like the Anansi Tales that can be traced back to the African Continent to the trickster rabbit stories of the Southern Gullah people. We also showcase tall tales like John Henry which became especially popular during the Civil Rights Movement. This interactive production is an exciting and enthusiastic exploration into this wonderful literary world.
